Ard Mhacha v Maigh Eo Craobh Cluiche Ceannais Peile Mionúir na hÉireann

Yes, being forced to live in Dublin for the rest of their lives if they don't win would be most unfair.

Well worth giving the people of the county the chance to show their appreciation no matter what the result on Sunday (though I'm sure they'll cancell it if there's a draw).

correct big face. and ill decide if youll be on the bus on sunday!!

[Aghdavoyle]

All the best to the young bucks on sunday. If they continue with the confidence and panache of the semi final second half we could have a long oerdue new set of all ireland medals up the road.

Mayo are a formidable outfit though and i hate to see opponents scraping through semis when we come through in style.

armagh by 1

[armagh leg-end]

Good Luck to all the Armagh lads on sunday!

[rootthemout]

ticket sorted,good luck to armagh players and management,if nerves dont get us can see us winning by 5-6 pts

Root, have a great day and make sure that you go back to the club for a few scoops to toast our fist minor AI since Jack Bratten was a pup. 

heres hoping stew,will you get to watch it?

[FL/MAYO]

I hear that the homecoming for Armagh is on the Sunday night at the Carrickdale.  Is this right?  Do the lads not get a night in Dublin?  Does anyone have any idea what time they'll be getting there at.  I might take the childer down.

The banquet is in the Carrickdale alright, kicking off at 9pm. The tickets are sold out at this stage.

Shows a complete lack of respect to Mayo to be posting up details of a 3-day homecoming before the match is played.
If Ray Dempsey or any of the players need any extra motivation I hope someone show's them this thread (not that they'd give a shite what is said here  ).

Armagh are a fine team, but Mayo are in the final on merit - lest ye forget, we haven't been beaten in the Championship either this year. I'll leave it to the team to prove themselves on the pitch. Hopefully there'll be a lot of humble pie eaten in the orchard next week   

[mackers]

FFS lads, where is this being promoted as a victory tour, dunno about ye lads in Mayo but our minor teams don't get to an AI final much, and our supporters will be out to welcome the young lads home win or lose. Reflects on their achievement in getting to the final. I was more determined to go to the homecoming of our senior team in 03 than in 02, they needed the support more coming home in defeat. Get the chip off the shoulders!!!!

[armaghniac]

Mayo people have to understand that Armagh is not in the minor final every year.

Hopefully there'll be a lot of humble pie eaten in the orchard next week   

Perhaps, but we prefer apple tart.

Ok, maybe we're a bit touchy, but All-Ireland finals tend to get us a bit tense and irritable for some reason
I was going to use the apple pie analogy but thought it was a bit OTT

Lads who are ye coddin, at 3 days its defo a victory celebration. If ye lose it'll be down to a one nighter of a shot.
